Trails south of Powerline Rd. (Bambi&#8217;s, Sawtooth, Back-In, Outback, 9-0, Skull Pass and Aberdeen) remain closed to bikes and motos until May 15 to protect the Gunnison Sage grouse. Ring Dike, V-Drop and Free Fall are not recommended as they&#8217;re still holding snow and need another week or so to melt out.
